about Hennie Bekker ↗
I have been satisfactorily served by Authentic BlueStar from Sanlam for the past five years and counting. I was introduced to them by a colleague, Hennie Bekker a fellow MP, we served together in SCOPA and the Finance Committee for years.

I like their sound advice that takes into account inflation and duration of the continuation of income, while receiving frequent updates and advice.
